[QUOTE="jc5420, post: 2825131, member: 16425"] From my 6 or so years of experience loading the .223 I have found that the only thing lapua brass offers me over sorted, and prepped lake city is primer pocket life. I have also found that extensive case prep on the little .223 goes a long way with accuracy, mainly with ES and SD numbers. If I can find one of my ladder test I ran at 300y I will post pics, but basically with LC brass and about 2 whole grains in overall charge weight difference I was printing consistent 1.5" groups at 300y. I believe the load I landed on was giving .5" groups at 300y and excellent results at 1000y. This was with a factory barrel on my Remington 700. I think your goal is easily doable. Keep in mind I do not measure horizontally when measuring for load stability. [/QUOTE]
